Random Memorial for Monday 6/29/15

Gone but not forgotten:  using PrintShop to make banners ... and flyers ... and greeting cards ...

More often than not, watching ABC's The Goldbergs inspires me to select a particular tune for Tuesday (and every time, I also plead for a soundtrack to be released) ... but one of the last episodes of the season (finally watched off of the OnDemand service) made me remember something *else* from the decade in which I came of age.

Namely ... the banner hanging in the background for a family celebration scene immediately took me back to using what was then a fancy software program where you could use the school printer to make your own items.  If only I had more time, I'd go looking for an actual card of that era that I'm sure I have in my files somewhere ...

All the paper good old LHS "fronted" me back in the day (those banners could go on *forever*) and all the signs and cards and such that I made back then ... you are missed.

LOTS AND LOTS OF "FRONTED" PAPER I TELL YA:

DESPITE THE PRINTSHOP, GREETING CARDS ARE STILL A THING:
